The Smiling Hiska

I was involved in the almost total rebuild of this 100 year old shepherds hut. After the completion one of the builders Jelena inscribed our names on a rock close to the entrance. Sadly she left out her own despite making a major contribution to the work. All the huts had a name and this one was called the Smiling Hiska.

That is one very athletic looking man to the top right of the image. It's funny, I was telling the tale to my Branch only last night of how you walled/walked the legs off me when I ventured North of the border last year. Respect. T
